(WMC) - Professional golfer John Daly is known for his wild wardrobe and other excesses, but the part-time Memphian admits he's gambled away at least $55 million.

Daly wrote about his admitted gambling addiction in a book, but it's making news again thanks to a new interview with Yahoo Sports. The loss involved a slot machine that was $5,000 per pull.

"I played that maybe five times, five or six times," he said about the millions gambled in less than 20 years. "I thought it might have been 20, 25 [million dollars], but I had no idea it was $55 to $57 million."

The statement Richardson released Monday praised his players as “active and impactful participants” in the community.
